Re-cover and return to the oven. Cook for an additional 45 minutes or until the beef is tender.

Taste and adjust seasoning. You will likely need to add a bit of salt. Go slow. Creep up on it. You'll know when it's right. All of a sudden the lemongrass and beef flavour will hit you over the head. If you are using Vietnamese sate sauce now is the time to mix it in.

To serve

Cook the egg noodles per the package directions.

Drain the noodles.

Divide the noodles into pre-heated bowls.

Spoon beef, carrots, daikon and broth over the noodles.

Serve with your choice of garnishes.

Notes

Vietnamese sate sauce is not that peanut sauce you are thinking of. It's a wonderful mixture of garlic, shallots, chilies and lemongrass. It is absolutely killer in this dish. It's also great in noodle dishes, on grilled chicken or in a stir fry. Try it. You won't be sorry...
